Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
A potentially stressful event can trigger an emotional response (such as fear or anxiety), a physiological response (such as an increase in heart rate and blood pressure), and a behavioral response (such as avoidance or aggression). Therefore, all of these responses may be triggered if the event is viewed with alarm.
